harsher penalties for crimes is not a bad thing. Simple fact is that most criminals/people do the things they do is because the reward/punishment depending on the offense outways the risk. They should institute hard time when you are in prision not summer camp. As far as the cop not wearing his seatbelt I have know some fellow officers that do not wear one while on duty becasue it becomes a problem when trying to exit the vehicle quickly ie getting caught on their belt. This sometimes becomes a habit unfortantly. In this case it may have saved his life. My thoughts go out to the family.
